Vintage Christmas Table Linens
Bright poinsettia prints, jolly cherubic Santas, and bright red-and-green accents mark true vintage Christmas tablecloths and napkins. When shopping for mid-20th-century table linens, look for colorful prints that call to mind classic Christmas images, such as Santas, lighted candles, and bustling elves. Sharon’s Antiques Vintage Fabrics features a wide selection of antique and traditional linens. During the holiday season, eBay also lists hundreds of auctions offering antique Christmas tablecloths and napkins. Search for “vintage Christmas tablecloths” or “vintage Christmas linens.” Look for vintage reproduction holiday linens, too, at many department stores.
Elegant Christmas Tablecloths
For the lover of silver candlesticks and all things traditional, a beautiful sparkling white tablecloth embroidered with red velvet poinsettias, such as the one sold by Linens 'n Things, captures the festive and fancy mood of a family gathering or holiday get-together with friends. This elegant polyester tablecloth comes in a variety of sizes. Four coordinating napkins, placemats and a table runner complete the look. Macy’s online store also carries classic solid and patterned Christmas table linens with brand names such as Lenox, Waterford and Ralph Lauren.
Vinyl Tablecloths for Christmas
Aunt Sally is bringing her brood of six rambunctious kids and Grandpa has never been too steady with the soup ladle, so go ahead and dress the table with a simple vinyl tablecloth, like the one from Bed Bath & Beyond. Available in five colors (moss and brick are suitably seasonal), these polyester-backed tablecloths require only a quick wipe down with damp sponge before they are packed away to await next year’s holiday festivities.
Christmas Paper Tablecloths
For clean up as simple as gathering the corners of the tablecloth and tossing it in the garbage, a Christmas disposable tablecloth can’t be beat. Oriental Trading sells a 6-inch by 54-inch tablecloth with Santas, snowmen, reindeer, and penguins printed along the border. Also sporting this design are plates, paper napkins and napkin rings, and paper placemats.
Christmas Placemats
Spruce up family dinners throughout the holiday season by trading your usual placemats for ones with a seasonal theme. Crate and Barrel’s online store features a host of Christmas placemats ranging from elegant to fun. On the fun end of the spectrum are these red placemats, each featuring three white embroidered reindeer. A coordinating napkin with one reindeer complements the placemat. This placemat is 100 percent cotton, while the napkin is 60 percent polyester, 40 percent cotton. Both are machine washable. Target also offers a set of four Christmas placemats, with each one printed with either Love, Peace, Hope or Joy.
